Precautions:

1. If a foreigner receives a work permit card issued by the Immigration Bureau, he should bring not only the card itself, but also the letter sent by the Immigration Bureau with the card and the envelope stamped with the postmark. Otherwise, the time to get the social security card will be greatly delayed, because the social security bureau has to check with the immigration bureau.

2. The application can be submitted by mail or in person. Suggest that I go to the social security bureau myself. The social security card application form and the office address of the Social Security Bureau can be found on the network of the Social Security Bureau of the United States, Monday to Friday, from 7 am to 7 pm.

The government does not charge any fees for applying for social security card. There is no application fee and no handling fee. Others should not charge any fees related to applying for social security cards. If someone tries to charge by applying for a social security card, be careful: either the way to obtain the social security card is illegal or the social security card is fake. If the social security card is cheated or found illegal.
